It has become obvious that the Chiefs will pass on a QB with the top pick and will address the QB need (a) later in round 1, (b) in round 2, or (c) by signing a veteran. No trade down is planned either.

There seems to be the following three names on top of the draft. Among these three which one would you want the Chiefs to use their 1st pick on:

1- LT Luke Joekel (meaning Albert will walk)

2- DE Star Lotulelei (meaning T-Jax will be cut)

3- Jarvis Jones (meaning we are thinking transition to 43 soon)

4- Other (name and explain)

KEEP IN MIND

This is not a Geno Smith, Tyler Wilson discussion. Keep that argument in the hundreds of other threads about it. This is about IF WE DON'T PICK A QB AT THE TOP! Just curious to know which of the picks mentioned makes more sense compared to the others IYO. If you are a staunch Geno fan, for example, this does not paint you as a traitor to the cause.

Why couldn't Damontre Moore bulk up a bunch and be that gap-penetrating DE we've been searching for all this time? He's got the arm length to do it, and his current weight is 250/260ish. He doesn't need to be a 300 lber in the 1-gap

Eh, much below 290 would be pretty tough to play at for a 3-4 DE, even a 1-gapper. Adding 40 lbs would be a freakin' ton of weight and would almost certainly rob him of enough of his speed to make him significantly less effective in that regard.

I just don't think you end up with a very good player there.

At least Milliner would make sense. I went with Jarvis Jones. And I could live with Star. But everything feels empty unless the QB is there. Honestly id rather trade down to #8 for example and take Nassib or Glennon then draft anybody else. Its a depressing scenario.

Nassib and/or Glennon should be available at the top of the 2nd. At least one of them.
